Premiere CS4 won't play any video - Overlay?

Hi, since installing Prem CS4 on Windows 7 when I try to play video through premiere the audio is fine but the video won't stays at a frozen frame. If I scroll the timeline the video moves through but doesn't play at all in the preview bin or in the main source window. All clips play in media player perfect and before with XP. It feels like an graphics overlay sort of problem, I have a Nvidia quadro FX 500 witht the latest drivers upgraded by Windows 7 but don't see any overlay settings in or out of premiere. Any suggestions?
thanks guys

Magic Hat,
Glad that you got it sorted. I've found that sometimes just asking a question immediately leads me to the answer - even before a response. I saw this all of the time in civil engineering. Just walking into another office to ask the question, often lit the lightbulb.
Good luck, and unfortunately, you can't award yourself "points" for the correct answer.

My quicktime player won't play any videos on my Mac X os. The video will start on quicktime then automatically start

My quicktime player won't play any videos on my Mac X os. The video will start on quicktime then automatically start. I installed DiV X today and all this happened is there anyway to fix this?? I went through everything dragging the icon to the trash and deleting it from safari extentions.

Download and install
Perian from http://perian.org/
You should read this support page http://perian.org/#support in case you need to delete older codecs. In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them), particularly any DivX extension to Safari. However it should be noted that Perian is not an internet plugin and will not play DivX files imbedded on a website. For that you will need the DivX Player browser plugin available from http://www.divx.com/en/software/mac Note that Perian will be discontinued after the release of Mountain Lion: http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57434082-263/perian-plug-in-for-quicktime-t o-be-discontinued/?tag=txt;title

My ipod 4th generation won't play any videos on any browser and YouTube

My ipod won't play any videos on safari and every other browser I downloaded. It won't even play videos from YouTube and YouTube the ap.

Many videos via Safari require Flash and will not play on the iPod.
What exactlyhappens when you try to use the YouTube app on the iPod?
Try
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
Deleting the and reinstall the YouTube app
- Go to Settings>Safri and Clear Cookies, Data and History
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

I just upgraded to firefox 4 and it won't play any videos on the internet. Is there a fix for this or how can I go back to the previous version.

my firefox 4 wont play any videos. adobe flash player says its not compatible with this arcitecture. Did anyone bother to test this before releasing it.

I appreciate you taking the time to respond, but I don't want to uninstall my persona. I want to uninstall FireFox 4. I love my persona.
It really bugs the crap out of me when FireFox sends these upgrades around and I click "yes" to install them then my entire desktop stops working.
Is it always necessary for their upgrades to render the add-ons that people develop useless?

I just updated my computer and now Safari won't play any video.

I just recently updated my Safari, to have it up to date. Now all of a sudden it will not play any video in Safari. How can I get my videos to play again? Please help!

Hi..
If you are referring to video streamed on YouTube or other sites that require the Flash plugin, try troubleshooting.
Quit Safari.
Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Storage tab. Click: Delete All
Now uninstall the Flash plugin then reinstall new > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
Very important to uninstall the currently installed Flash plugin first.
Relaunch Safari. From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
Now try a video.
BTW... if you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to: Open in 32 bit mode is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.
Tip... when you post for help, please tell us which Mac OS X you have installed

Totem won't play any video, despite of working GStreamer

Now, whenever I play h264 file with Totem, all I get is white screen:

I can't see anything wrong here. The strange part is, that the same video plays correctly with gst-launch-1.0 playbin:

On higher levels and it's great. But beacuse Totem integrates with GNOME so nicely, I thought, I would use it from time to time.
and gst-vaapi installed, there is something informative:

Help! Premiere CS3 won't play any mp3s!!

This has always worked; I don't know what has changed.
Now, if I import mp3s, all looks well until I try to play them either on the timeline or source window. There's no visual soundwave present whatsoever and it just plays silence (though for the right amount of time). It would be as if I were loading silent mp3s.
These are not DRM protected, several I have created myself. I can play them on the same computer in every other mp3 playing program that I have.
Any idea what could be causing this????
Thanks,
-Nick

Before I list more details let me just mention that Jim's suggestion worked... odd that I didn't think to do that before. I've tried importing the existing project into this new project and it looks like that's going to work albeit with a little bit of inconvenience.
Here's likely a major detail that I left out. I finally got CS4, and installed it on the same machine with CS3. I had opened up the project a few days ago in Premiere CS4 but CS4 said it wouldn't change the project file whatsoever. I'm suspecting that CS4 did SOMETHING that affected the project. I don't know what else it'd be.
The only other significant changes of which I'm aware are installing MySQL and iTunes... though the latter has run on this machine before with no effects to Adobe software. MySQL is just a database system so I don't see what problem that could cause.

Zen Won't Play Any Videos!!!

I've had my Creative Zen player for about a year now and I've had no problems, but tonight I tried for the first time to put a video onto it and was met with complete frustration. None of?my videos will play on it, giving either errors about how the audio is not compatible or that it simply had an error playing the video. I've made sure that the audio is mp3, that the video is avi or wmv (I've tried both by converting the video), and that?it has a resolution of 320x240, all properties that this site says should definately work for my player. The videos play just fine in my Windows Media Player as well. If you?need any more information to figure out what might be wrong, don't hesitate to ask! ?

By "Any Videos" do you mean videos you've grabbed on line or do you mean home movies or do you mean DVD's?
I had a problem with the audio staying in sync with DVD's I ripped for my Zen, until I figured out what the problem was.
Look here... DVD To Zen
Get Gspot here... Gspot
Keep in mind, that was how I got DVD's to work, but you might be able to use the same principles.

Macbook Pro won't play any videos on any browser or any site

Videos on youtube, tumblr, facebook, amazon instant, netflix and any other video I come across will not play and will not even start to load on my macbook pro. I have uninstalled and reinstalled flash, I have cleared all website data, I have cleared my history, I downloaded chrome (and the problem did not change on the new browser), I have restarted my computer multiple times, and nothing seems to work. Has this happened to anyone else? Does anyone know how to fix it?

I would, first of all, try another browser. If you don't already have it, try Firefox, if it works ok in Firefox I would try resetting Safari.(uncheck "remove saved names and passwords" if you don't have them written down anywhere)

Quicktime Player Pro won't play any movies?

Ever since I restored my computer about a month ago, my Quicktime Player won't play any video formats correctly. .avi files don't play anymore, and mp4 files only play sound with the screen black. Then when I try to close the application, I get the pinwheel for a long time, thus making me force quit every time. How can I fix this so it can play movies correctly?
(I'd also like to know how to get it to play .mka format movies as well)

Courtney,
There are a lot of possible CODECS used with .AVI file, not all of which are available for the QuickTime player.
If you just want to play the AVI files use the free VLC media player found at http://www.videolan.org/vlc/

Safari won't play certain videos

Hi there,
it came to my attention that my Safari (latest version) won't play any video on the site "www.collegehumor.com". YouTube and every other popular site works fine for me. After googling this problem, I tried to play the videos with a different user; without success. After that, I uninstalled the Flash Player and reinstalled it (latest version), because this was suggested by my google searches... but I still can't play any video on collegehumor.com.
Has anyone any idea what the problem might be?
thanks in advance!

Laptop won't let me play any video or change the brightness of the screen at all.

I got this new Laptop a few months ago and it has just recently started to play up slightly and not let me change my brightness settings at all and now it won't let me play any videos.

I got a solution
First check out your performance settings and if u dont know where to find it just right click on my computer and enter to propreties then click on performance and tools, then if the gamming and desktop aero system are 1.0 then you have three solutions.
1) Install a new windows
2) check out your computer driver and install tge latest version
3) or simply you can download DRIVER PAC SOLUTION and install it then after installation is done you might wanna restart the system and check performance again then it should desplay NEW HARDWARE DETECT REFRESH NOW then click on refreah and the rating is gonna go up from1.0.to higher than 4.0.

PPro CS4 won't play back

Suddenly video in Premiere Pro CS 4.0.0 for Mac won't play back from source window, program window, or timeline, except for an occasional playback of < 1 second. Scarily this was described by a bunch of users in a thread started two years ago. Only one solution was offered there, which didn't apply to my Mac.
I was involved in another thread on a related subject in this forum once before but that setup seemed connected to the use of a Dazzle Bridge for capturing. There's no such complication now...it's just not playing any video more than a few frames.
An editor who can't playback any video is in trouble, and after paying as much as I did for this program and a Mac Pro, it is disheartening. Any ideas out there?

I appreciate everyone's help but I'm afraid the situation has gone from bad to worse, since Premiere suddenly disappeared.
Yesterday, following one bit of forum advice, I tried using a separate user account labeled Premiere Pro and the program did play the files--though it wouldn't let me save the project file where it resided. Now, however, the program is nowhere to be found. I have the original installation disk but I have heard of problems arising from reinstallations.
To answer some other questions, I did try to download the latest update for PPro CS4. I am using PPro for Mac on a Mac Pro with a 10.5.8 OS. I can't say for certain exactly which version I "have" of PPro CS 4 since the update because the program has disappeared and is not turning up in the Finder anywhere, nor can I recall the exact wording of the error message saying I couldn't save my project as edited under the alternate user. The program and system worked fairly problem free for almost four years before the last few days. I use a variety of source footage, including .avi, .mov, .flv, .mp3, .wav.
One Snow Leopard user has recommended using a Root User account which doesn't seem to apply here. For example, he referred to a "Network Account User" option that was supposed to appear in Accounts/Login Options but doesn't on my Leopard. Also, as per another user at Trafford College, I revised permissions to select Everyone...however since the program isn't appearing on my computer, there's no telling if that worked.
Community help is greatly appreciated--especially in light of one forum report of someone who was on the phone with Adobe for hours with this kind of problem but without getting it solved.

30GB 5G Ipod no longer plays any video -HELP!

I have a 5G ipod purchased toward the end of 2005. It always worked great until I went to play a video the other day. My ipod crashes every time I try to play any video, whether downloaded from itunes, homemade, anything. This isn't an issue of needing to turn the TV-Out setting off. I've tried restoring, reverting to previous firmwares (from 1.2.1 to 1.1.2 and 1.0, using itunes 7.2), formatting and restoring, everything I've seen on forums everywhere. It used to play video just fine, so I'm completely at a loss. If I select a video through the audio podcast area, it will play the audio portion. When I try to play videos properly, the screen stays blank and no longer accepts input - I have to reset the ipod. I know that I'm out of warranty so I'm probably boned, aren't I?

I just purchased my 30gb video iPod, and am running into almost the exact same situation. The only difference is that I don't have to reset it. It just won't play a movie at all. It starts the little "timer" thing that clicks around, but then goes back out of the movie. I know the movie is a good download, because I can watch it from start to finish within iTunes.
Anyone got any ideas? I really don't want to stay on hold for 1-2 hours waiting on a person to talk to with tech support!
